# Google Search Results Scraper — SERP API (`webdatatools/google-search-scraper`) Actor Google Search Results Scraper returns organic results (title, real URL, snippet, position) for any query through the Apify GOOGLE\_SERP proxy — one row per SERP page, priced per page not per result. - **URL**: https://apify.com/webdatatools/google-search-scraper.md - **Developed by:** [Murat Uzun](https://apify.com/webdatatools) (community) - **Categories:** SEO tools, Lead generation, AI - **Stats:** 11 total users, 6 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $3.00 / 1,000 results This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events. Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

It has two run modes. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ### What is Google Search Results Scraper? Google Search Results Scraper is an Apify Actor that fetches Google search result pages (SERPs) and returns **organic results with real, ready-to-click destination URLs** as one clean, structured row per page. It works through the Apify Proxy `GOOGLE_SERP` group — the proxy pool Google accepts requests through — using Google's `&gbv=1` ("basic HTML") rendering, the one request shape (of six tested through that proxy) that returns organic links as a decodable `/url?q=` redirect instead of Google's newer opaque `/goto?url=` click tracker that most scrapers cannot read. Priced **per SERP page fetched, not per result**, so a 10-result page and a 100-result page cost the same. **Pricing:** Google Search Results Scraper costs **$5.00 per 1,000 results** (pay per result, no subscription; Apify's free plan credit covers small runs). ### What data does Google Search Results Scraper extract? Google Search Results Scraper extracts the organic result list for every query/page combination you give it: | Field | Type | Description | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `query`, `page`, `countryCode`, `languageCode`, `device` | string, number | The request that produced this row | | `searchUrl` | string | The exact Google URL fetched through the proxy | | `organicResults`, `organicCount` | array, number | `{position, title, url, displayedUrl, snippet, date, sitelinks[]}` per organic listing | | `peopleAlsoAsk`, `relatedSearches`, `ads`, `adCount`, `featuredSnippet`, `knowledgePanelTitle` | array/object/null | Parsed when present — see the FAQ, they are near-always empty on this Actor's leaner rendering | | `totalResultsText`, `htmlLength` | string, number | Google's own results-count text (rarely present) and the raw HTML size fetched | | `error`, `scrapedAt` | string | Set on a fetch/parse/blocked-page failure, and the ISO timestamp of the request | ### How to use Google Search Results Scraper 1. Enter your search terms into **Search queries**, e.g. `apify web scraping`. One row comes back per query per result page. 2. Set **Results per page** (up to 100) and **Max pages per query** (up to 10) if you need more than the first page. 3. Pick **Device** (desktop or mobile User-Agent), click **Start**, then export as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML — every `organicResults[].url` is a real `https://` link, ready to open or crawl further. ### Example input ```json { "queries": ["apify web scraping", "best crm for startups"], "countryCode": "us", "languageCode": "en", "resultsPerPage": 10, "maxPagesPerQuery": 1, "device": "desktop" } ``` ### Example output ```json { "query": "apify web scraping", "page": 1, "device": "desktop", "searchUrl": "http://www.google.com/search?q=apify+web+scraping&hl=en&gl=us&num=10&gbv=1", "organicResults": [ { "position": 1, "title": "Apify: The largest marketplace of trusted tools for AI", "url": "https://apify.com/", "displayedUrl": "apify.com", "snippet": "68,172 tools for your AI ... Apify is the largest marketplace of trusted tools for AI. Get real-time...", "date": null, "sitelinks": [] }, { "position": 2, "title": "Apify - GitHub", "url": "https://github.com/apify", "displayedUrl": "github.com › apify", "snippet": null, "date": null, "sitelinks": [] } ], "organicCount": 6, "peopleAlsoAsk": [], "relatedSearches": [], "adCount": 0, "error": null, "scrapedAt": "2026-09-12T18:23:45.000Z" } ``` ### Input parameters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | | ------------------------ | ------- | ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------- | | `queries` | array | `["apify web scraping"]` | Search queries, one or more result pages per query | | `countryCode` | string | `"us"` | 2-letter country code (`gl`) | | `languageCode` | string | `"en"` | 2-letter language code (`hl`) | | `resultsPerPage` | integer | `10` | Results requested per page (10-100) | | `maxPagesPerQuery` | integer | `1` | Result pages fetched per query (1-10) | | `device` | string | `"desktop"` | `desktop` or `mobile` User-Agent | | `includePeopleAlsoAsk` | boolean | `true` | Parse the People Also Ask box, when Google renders one | | `includeRelatedSearches` | boolean | `true` | Parse related-search suggestions, when Google renders any | | `safeSearch` | boolean | `false` | Request SafeSearch filtering | | `maxConcurrency` | integer | `3` | SERP pages fetched in parallel (1-10) | There is no proxy configuration input — every request goes through the Apify Proxy `GOOGLE_SERP` group automatically, and that proxy cost is already included in the price below. ### Pricing Google Search Results Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing: **$0.005 per SERP page fetched, i.e. $5 per 1,000 pages** ($0.50 per 1,000 organic results at 10 results/page), Apify SERP proxy included — you never see a separate proxy bill. The underlying `GOOGLE_SERP` proxy traffic costs Apify (and therefore this Actor) about **$0.0025 per page**, so pricing leaves roughly half the price as margin while staying well below a self-hosted proxy-plus-CAPTCHA-solving setup. Set **Maximum cost per run** and the Actor trims the query/page list to what the budget covers instead of overspending. ### Google Search Results Scraper vs. apify/google-search-scraper The popular `apify/google-search-scraper` Actor is priced by compute-unit usage, which is harder to estimate up front and can vary with proxy retries. Google Search Results Scraper is flat pay-per-event: you always know a page costs $0.005 before you run it, and a failed or blocked page never pushes a duplicate billed row — it pushes exactly one row with the reason in `error`. It also deliberately fetches Google's leaner `&gbv=1` rendering so `organicResults[].url` is a real link every time, rather than the newer opaque click-tracker link many scrapers pass through unresolved. ### Using Google Search Results Scraper with AI agents and MCP Google Search Results Scraper is pay-per-event with limited permissions — the two requirements for an Actor to be callable through the Apify MCP server at `mcp.apify.com`. An agent passes `queries` and gets back structured organic results with real destination URLs per page — ready for competitive research, content-gap analysis, or a lead-generation pipeline that needs to actually visit or crawl the result. The same run works from n8n, Make, Zapier and LangChain through Apify's integrations. ### FAQ **Why does this Actor use Google's `&gbv=1` mode instead of the normal results page?** We tested 6 request variants through the Apify `GOOGLE_SERP` proxy (different User-Agents — Lynx, old Firefox, Googlebot — and query parameters — `pws=0`, a `CONSENT` cookie). Every variant except `&gbv=1` returned organic links as `/goto?url=` — an encrypted, undecodable click tracker. Only `&gbv=1` ("basic HTML version") returned the classic, decodable `/url?q=&sa=U...` redirect. `&gbv=1` is requested on every fetch, but Google does not always honor it (it is more consistent for `desktop`; a `mobile` request occasionally gets the normal, heavier page back instead) — when that happens the parser still recognizes the older markup and falls back to the `displayedUrl` breadcrumb guess. Across our live verification runs this added up to roughly **90% of organic results getting a fully real, decoded `url`**, with the rest getting a best-effort guess or, rarely, `null`. **Why are `peopleAlsoAsk`, `relatedSearches`, `ads` and `featuredSnippet` almost always empty?** This is the trade-off for real URLs: Google's `&gbv=1` rendering is a leaner page that does not include those widgets at all — not even the People Also Ask question text survives, unlike the default page. The fields stay in the schema (parsed and populated whenever Google does include them) so nothing breaks if that ever changes, but expect them empty on a typical run today. If your use case specifically needs PAA/ads/related searches rather than real URLs, this Actor is not the right fit yet. **Why is `url` occasionally still null?** In rare cases the `/url?q=` redirect itself is missing or malformed. When that happens the Actor falls back to a best-effort guess from the `displayedUrl` breadcrumb (e.g. `github.com › apify` → `https://github.com`); when even that isn't URL-shaped, `url` stays null but `displayedUrl` is still populated. **What happens if Google shows a CAPTCHA or cookie-consent page?** The row's `error` says so (`"Blocked by Google (captcha page detected)..."`) and the raw HTML is saved to the run's key-value store as `DEBUG_.html` so it can be inspected; lower **Max concurrency** and try again later. **What if Google changes its markup?** Every selector has 2-3 fallbacks. If a page still comes back with 0 organic results despite being a real (large) response, the row gets `error: "Could not parse results (markup changed?)"` and the HTML is likewise saved as `DEBUG_.html` — open an issue with that file attached. **Is this legal to run?** Scraping publicly visible search results is generally lower-risk than scraping logged-in content, but you are responsible for complying with Google's Terms of Service and your local laws for your use case. **Can I export to CSV or Excel?** Yes, from the Output tab or the API, with a ready-made **Overview** view. ### Related Actors Part of the **webdatatools** web-intelligence suite — every Actor is pay-per-event, reads public data without a login, and returns one clean row per entity: Browse the whole suite at [webdatatools](https://paulet4a-commits.github.io/webdatatools/), or call ten of these Actors straight from Claude, Cursor or Cline with the [webdatatools MCP server](https://github.com/paulet4a-commits/webdatatools-mcp-server). **Website & domain intelligence** -

Open an issue on the **Issues** tab — attach the `DEBUG_.html` file from the run's key-value store if you have one. # Actor input Schema ## `queries` (type: `array`): Enter the Google search queries to scrape, e.g. apify web scraping. One dataset row is returned per query per result page. ## `countryCode` (type: `string`): Enter the 2-letter country code Google should localise results for, e.g. us, gb, de. Sent as the gl parameter. ## `languageCode` (type: `string`): Enter the 2-letter interface language code, e.g. en, es, fr. Sent as the hl parameter and affects snippet language. ## `resultsPerPage` (type: `integer`): Enter how many results Google should return per page, e.g. 10. Higher values (up to 100) fit more organic results on one billed page but Google may still cap what it actually returns. ## `maxPagesPerQuery` (type: `integer`): Enter how many result pages to fetch per query, e.g. 1. Each extra page is a separate billed SERP page (start=N\*resultsPerPage). ## `device` (type: `string`): Choose desktop or mobile to control which User-Agent is sent — Google sometimes shows slightly different snippets/layout per device. ## `includePeopleAlsoAsk` (type: `boolean`): Keep this on to parse the People Also Ask question box. Note: Google only loads each answer's text/link after a click, so answerSnippet/url are often null — only the question text is reliably available. ## `includeRelatedSearches` (type: `boolean`): Keep this on to parse the related-searches suggestions shown near the bottom of the page. ## `safeSearch` (type: `boolean`): Turn this on to request Google's SafeSearch filtering (adds safe=active to the request). ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Enter how many SERP pages to fetch in parallel, e.g. 3. The GOOGLE\_SERP proxy is fast; raise this for large query lists, lower it if you see blocked-page errors. ## Actor input object example ```json { "queries": [ "apify web scraping", "best crm for startups" ], "countryCode": "us", "languageCode": "en", "resultsPerPage": 10, "maxPagesPerQuery": 1, "device": "desktop", "includePeopleAlsoAsk": true, "includeRelatedSearches": true, "safeSearch": false, "maxConcurrency": 3 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `serpPages` (type: `string`): All scraped SERP pages — download as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "queries": [ "apify web scraping", "best crm for startups" ], "countryCode": "us", "languageCode": "en", "resultsPerPage": 10, "maxPagesPerQuery": 1, "device": "desktop", "includePeopleAlsoAsk": true, "includeRelatedSearches": true, "safeSearch": false, "maxConcurrency": 3 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("webdatatools/google-search-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?

Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/WBNF7gdGseCUnEeYI/builds/yeSb0XCQN9XZ067IS/openapi.json
